My DD is due to have these tomorrow. She is a bit under the weather - she has an ear infection - would that make any difference to anything. I am not concerned from the how she is feeling point of view - she is 15 and really wants to get them done - but the point of view of the results.

I don't think it will make a difference as long as she hasn't taken any medication that has anti-histimine in it.

I remember one time my DD was poorly the day before the tests and I called but they said come in anyway.

Maybe call the Dr office in the morning before you go to be sure its not a wasted trip?

As long as hse has not had any anthistamines/hc/corticoids during the last week the tests results should not be altered.
